“ Very nice. The main patio was full, but we were able to sit outside in a covered walkway, which was nice. Probably not as nice as the patio proper, which is why I couldn't go the full 5 stars for Atmosphere. The menu offers several choices. My wife had the Sausage and Mushroom pizza, which smelled great, and I really enjoyed the piece I snagged. I had the Cobb Salad. I typically like Blue Cheese on my Cobb, but they make theirs with Gorgonzola, which I don't personally care for. No problem, though, as they happily substituted Gouda cheese. All in all, a great place that we'll visit the next time we're in Sonoma. ”
“ The Red Grape is one of my favorite spots in Sonoma. The service is great. The food is delicious. This afternoon I had the Butternut Squash Soup and a flower less chocolate torte. So yummy. Previous visits, I’ve enjoyed the Cesar Chicken Salad, their homemade pizza and pasta. I highly recommend sitting outside in the garden patio on a sunny day. It’s one the best places to be when in Sonoma. ”
“ The Sonoma Pizza is really great. The sausage is so flavorful and the cauliflower appetizer is a tasty starter! Waiter was very friendly. ”
“ Grabbed lunch during my tour of Napa and Sonoma and was craving some pasta! I went right at opening time and the place started filling up quickly. Their service was really friendly and helpful! The pasta was great and coffee was normal. Many reviews highlighted their pizzas but unfortunately I was a solo diner and doubt I’ll be able to finish an entire pie! Will definitely return if I’m in the area again! ”
“ Discovered this gem of a restaurant in Sonoma, and what a delightful find it was! The service was top-notch—attentive and friendly. Our food arrived promptly, and each dish was a flavor explosion! The ambiance was bright and vibrant, adding to the overall wonderful experience. Can't wait to return for another satisfying meal! ”
“ The white pizzas were so good. The clam pizza was so fresh tasting and yummy. The pistachio was also great. Wine was good and prices were reasonable. Worth checking out! ”
“ Comfort food, easy vibes, and a pizza that surprised me The Red Grape nails the trifecta: laid-back, family-friendly, and delicious. It’s the kind of spot where you settle in, relax, and just enjoy some solid comfort food. They’ve got the classics, but don’t sleep on the more experimental pies—the “Glen Ellen” with caramelized apples, onions, and prosciutto was a standout and unexpectedly my favorite. Appetizers were also great across the board. Best move? Order a bunch and share everything—pizzas, short rib ragu, and whatever else catches your eye. Being right at Sonoma Plaza, parking is no problem, and the overall experience makes this place an easy recommendation. ”
“ Wonderful! Friendly greeting at the door. Open, comfortable seating inside and out. The mushroom bruschetta was so flavorful. Sausage and Mushroom Pizza was wafer thin, crisp and loaded with flavor. Pozole soup was clean and packed with flavor, avocado and chicken. Absolutely recommended when you are in Sonoma ”
